The People I See on My Travels

Anyone that knows anything about me knows that I travel….A LOT. I average roughly over 100 segments of flights per year. Delta Airlines loves me. For those non-frequent fliers, a segment is a section of flight between layovers. For instance, if I travel from my home in Lewiston, ID to LSU it will be four segments as I will venture from Lewiston, ID to Salt Lake City, UT to Dallas, TX to Baton Rouge, LA. Bottom line, I get around and, in meandering around the country, I see some interesting characters along the way. This blog is going to be short and talk about one person, unnamed and I don’t know (thankfully or I would have said/say something immediately), that I see. I will say almost 100% of the people I will report on will be from airports. If you haven’t been to an airport lately, I highly recommend it for people watching. They are a reality show waiting to happen. This section will undoubtedly be added to over the year.

If you have been following me on Twitter (well done by the way) you already have read about some of my encounters in my travels. As previously stated, the Rubio Long Snapping blog is going to be like my Twitter – just on steroids. I will obviously be able to go into more detail as I am not limited to 140 characters (max you can put per Twitter message, I know it is called Tweet but I protest that word so don’t expect me to use it ever again. Only reason I used it this time was to clarify. Don’t worry, I just hit myself for going against my own protest and it won’t happen again) and can really spray about the places and, more importantly, the people I see along the way. Hopefully, this blog will be passed around to people you know so they can be educated on how to function in society since it is obviously not a given.

First person I want to discuss is the I-Am-The-Only-Person-In-The-World-And-I-Think-I-Am-At-Home guy. Please take a gander at the photo of this guy (I was nice enough to blur his grill so no would recognize him).
Seriously, who sits like this in public!? I am not even sure I would lounge this way in my own home while watching Man vs Food contemplating how bad Sailer, Marcus J and/or  I would crush his challenges. This guy isn’t at home, he is waiting to board a plane! Come on man. Have some couth. Before you even say, “Rubio, he is saving the seat for someone,” let me reassure you he wasn’t. I sat there and watched him. It was like a car accident, I couldn’t look away and it wasn’t because he was sporting a scarf either. Bottom line: have some common sense when you aren’t at home. Plain and simple.
That’s all for now. Please spread the word on sitting properly in public. I thought it was simply a given, but apparently I was wrong. Maybe if we all get the word out, people can be fixed.
More to come as my travels continue……
